When you get a book written by Yusupov about one of his favorite defenses, the Petroff, then you know it will be good! Yusupov has been one of the premier players of this defense in the last decades, so you know you will be getting an outstanding lesson. If you play this defense, or just to be prepared as white, this book is for you. It will be outdated in terms of the most recent variations, but it will give you a good base and unique insight into the intimate details of this awesome defense. After reading it you will understand it better. Recommended!

Don't waste your time or money. Very little information here. I like my books to have some text. If you just like to read lines then this is the book for you. I sold my copy at the local chess club. I usually like Olms books.

Uno de los mas actuales especialistas de esta apertura comenta detalladamente la partida rusa o petroff, para lo cual el material bibliografico es de los mejores como tambien de los mas actuales, se muestra graficos de posiciones criticas en un buen número y en formato algebraico con excelentes ejercicios para quien ama esta defensa encontrara en este libro un buen material para perfeccionarse.
Ademas se encuentran partidas comentadas por Arthur Yusupov en las cuales se indican las ideas tanto para las blancas como para las negras.
Buena suerte.
